It's the week before Christmas and, traditionally, we're all meant to be
slowing down, signing
carols around the printer, quaffing
eggnog by the
water cooler and running
USB Christmas decorations about the cube. Why is it that everyone I
know is in panic mode trying to finish off year-end projects that absolutely,
positively, can't wait a week. Even though no one is going to touch them for a
week. As homage to this we're running a short and sweet End Of Year
article competition that ends two weeks late. Yes, we've built-in a 2 week
buffer in our last contest of the year to allow sufficient decking-of-halls and
trimming-of-trees. The occasion? The end of our $140,000
AppInnovation contest!
It's done! We can sleep! So, for all those who pushed to get an application in
the AppStores, we now invite you to slow down a little and write up your
experience, your wisdom, and most importantly, your code. Enter our
Ultrabook Article competition and you could win the Ultrabook of your
dreams. And the AppInnovation
contest itself? A huge round of applause for the big winners

- Inline CSS Styles for HTML Emails with HttpModule - Leland Richardson
HTML-based emails are one of those evil things in the life of a web-developer that we would all rather never have to do... but alas, it needs to be done. One can do this in a variety of ways, but it is fairly common to use modern web-development technologies to generate the actual email bodies ove
